At a meeting At Ontario Division. Headquarters, presided over ;by. Mr. Russell T. ,Kelley,; blood donor work in this province was discussed. All clinics were closed during the month of July. As Canada will have about 3.5,000 men in the war in the Pacific, and as the British Government has. made certain requests for blood serum, from Canadian Red Cross, total blood donations • required will be in excess of 500,000 annually for all. Canada. Ontario will be asked to accept half of this nuniber. There will therefore be a revision in the blood donor service and probably some centralization of the work. Many clinics are located in buildings loaned for the duration.
